This man-made world
View through CrossRef
This chapter ties together various themes about house design, efficiency and economics in a story about how the domestic science movement developed in the period from around 1910 to the 1930s. A more housewife-centred approach to house planning; the transfer to household work of efficiency principles originally developed in industry; an economic analysis with productive housework at its centre; and the reimagining of housework as a collective enterprise all formed the backdrop to the university career of domestic science. However, none, for various reasons, had an enduring impact on the world of everyday housework.
